units of sin

I was thinking about how strange it is that the cupboard in a bathroom is called a "vanity unit", and then I got to thinking, what if all your furniture was named after the seven deadly sins?

* Bathroom cupboard = vanity unit

* Paid-work office = avarice unit

* Computer gaming station = anger unit

* Device running social media = envy unit

* Bed = lust unit

* Induction hob = gluttony unit

* Sofa = sloth unit
